Chrism Mass at St Michael’s & All Angels, Woodchurch Wirral CH49 5LB

You are invited to join this year’s Chrism Mass which Bishop Mark concelebrates with Priests from various regions of our diocese and during which he consecrates the sacred Chrism and blesses the other oils.

This is among the principal manifestations of the fullness of the Bishop’s Priesthood and is considered to be a sign of the close bond of the Priests with him. For it is with the sacred Chrism consecrated by the Bishop that the newly baptised are anointed and those to be confirmed are signed. It is with the Oil of Catechumens that catechumens are prepared and disposed for Baptism. Finally it is with the Oil of the Sick that those who are ill are comforted in their infirmity.
